Hello gents,
This is a slightly improved Fairey Swordfish T.Mk2 with operational torpedo.
Not exactly a Mk XII, but it runs straight enough. The inclusion of a torpedo has made the old Stringbag a touch more complex;
To take off, activate group 6. This will start the engine. You can then take off as normal (remember the tendency to swing to the left).
To activate and drop the torpedo, do as follows; 1. Activate group 4. This switches on the torpedos engine.
2. Keep to maximum 100 feet altitude and do not exceed 120 mph airspeed.
3. Remember that if you are aiming at a moving vessel, you will be need to lead your target. Use the gun sight and your best judgement.
4. Activate group 3 to release the torpedo. There is an orbit camera placed on the torpedo, should you wish to track its progress.
Have fun and good hunting.

@shadowmaker108 Because I happen to like the Swordfish.
Oh god, why the sword fish. You could've chosen literally any other plane from that era. SO WHYYYYY?! It's such a sad aircraft with no speed and has a turn time of over a minute (in real life). I don't know who did this to you but I will avenge you!
